The trial version of Revit LT does not provide an option to import dgn files. Does the licensed version of Revit LT allow the import of dgn files?
Solved! Go to Solution.
It is available in the full version and I also checked a trial version I have installed and it's there too. Have you checked the dropdown list for file types when importing/linking?
Hi,
Thank you for taking your time to post this on the forum,
I agree with her post above, it is very much included in the Revit LT build so her suggestion would be a good start.
Let us know if you have done that and it really isn´t a feature available for you,
Best Regards,
Thank you @Jacob.westergaard and Thank you @Melina.Vlachousi for checking this!
Hi @Anonymous
I see that you are visiting as a new member! Welcome to the Autodesk community!
Below is an image which shows that you can import dgn files in Revit LT
DGN (design) is the name used for CAD file formats supported by Bentley Systems' MicroStation
Please see the link HERE for information Importing or Linking CAD Formats and HERE for Importing CAD Files Using i-drop
You might also consider converting a DGN file to a DWG file using Autodesk® Revit® - though this has some limitations - there are few recommendations which you can try.
